“Bahu Begum” Set To Bid Adieu To Audiences Next Month

Bahu Begum, starring Arjit Taneja, Diana Khan and Samiksha Jaiswal in lead roles, was launched with much fanfare on 15^th July 2019. However, in spite of featuring some popular television actors and a strong storyline, the series failed to catch many eyeballs, and now the news is coming in that Colors has decided to pull the plug on it.

Bahu Begum is produced by LSD Films Private Limited.

Arjit Taneja, who previously starred in such successful shows as Kumkum Bhagya, Pyaar Ko Ho Jaane Do and Kaleerein, received overwhelming response for his performance as Azaan Akhtar Mirza. The show revolves around a love triangle, featuring Arjit Taneja alongside Diana Khan and Samiksha Jaiswal as the lead cast.

When the series hit the small screen almost six months ago, it did receive good response from the audience. However, TRPs plummeted soon and the news of the show going off-air started doing the rounds in no time.

Before taking the final call, the makers tried everything possible to boost TRPs of the show, but all in vain. Despite introducing a five-years leap, no improvement was shown on TRP charts. As a result, the makers are reportedly planning to axe Bahu Begum. According to a report published in a popular publication, the show is likely to conclude in January next year.

When asked about the untimely conclusion of Bahu Begum, Arjit Taneja told the publication that when the show was launched, the team had expected it to run for at least a year-and-a-half. Initially, the ratings, too, were encouraging. However, they slipped in recent times. The actor went on to add that though a date has not been announced yet, the team has been informed by the production house that the show will end in the first half of January.
